Our family has been visiting Ocean Isle beach every summer for 30 years. It is really a special place, with impressive beaches, eateries options fit for families and foodies, a fantastic park and spray pad for the kids, daily fun events planned by the town for families (including concerts, movie events, scavenger hunts), fishing and water sports abound, a museum, and very close to Myrtle Beach for many other fun options. Don’t miss sunset slush and a family put-put outing (our kids favorite things!). Cheeky Tiki is designed and constructed for multi-generational use in mind, brand new for the 2023 summer season. We wanted to create an ocean getaway that supplied all of the elements we have looked for when selecting homes for our family each summer. Painless ocean access is vital for a calming day at the beach. We are diagonally across from Winnabow beach access. One of the least busy and widest stretches of Ocean Isle beach. Easily walk back for bathroom and lunch breaks or to grab a cool drink. It is impossible not to be casual while sitting on our multiple immense deck areas with tons of shade and ocean vistas from every direction. Appreciate lunch alfresco while taking in the gorgeous vistas.
Our home was created with comfort and fun in mind. Each bedroom has a dedicated bathroom for privacy, a huge intelligent TV, as well as comfortable linens and window coverings to create a peaceful, dark relaxing sleeping area. 2 sizable living rooms are available so you can separate your more animated home guest in one fun space (complete with 2 arcade games each with over 500 games, shuffle board, wet bar, huge intelligent tv and board/card games) while keeping the other space for a more relaxing adult environment (complete with tons of cozy seating, enormous intelligent tv and electric fireplace).
We have designed our kitchen to make cooking for a sizable crowd painless. You will find double full size fridges/freezers to hold enough food and drinks for a crowd, plus double ice makers! Plenty of storage space for food in our walk in pantry. All the cooking silverware you need to make delicious meals for your family of up to 18. Our dining table sits 12 people comfortably and our bar area seats an additional 6 (with barstools with backs so you actually can put the kids in your group at the bar).
We want your time at Cheeky Tiki spent making memories you will never forget. And hope you will visit us again! We will provide recommendations for activities and eateries during your stay. We are always accessible for questions or issues that may arise . A huge heated pool surrounded with seating can be adored by everybody. Also you will find a tiki bar with wet sink, bar stools and intelligent TV. It’s a ideal place to use our margarita maker to savor beverages by the pool. Also on the first floor is a comfortable outdoor covered seating area, a gas grille, outdoor shower, and covered hot tub. You will find in our secured locked first floor area outdoor games, pool floats, pool toys, and a wagon if needed to carry things over the beach.
As a family with young kids, we know what is important to parents when traveling with kids. Safety is important to us. All wet areas (pool and hot tub) are behind gates that are not effortlessly opened by kids. Our elevator is up to code and inspected for safety with kids in mind (Although we require all elevator use with adults only and elevators can be locked to prohibit kids from playing). We have infant gates available if needed. We provide a pack n play as well as a folding crib (but bring your own sheets please). 2 high chairs as well as kid friendly dishes/silverware/cups supplied. You will also find games and some toys for those occasional rainy days. Good sleep is a necessity to really make your visit a vacation and not just a trip. The bunk room has been set up to provide a good nights sleep for a crowd of kids if needed. (4 full size beds as well as 2 twin trundles). This area also includes a nugget couch and other fort building supplies for hours of fun. Our kids most favorite summer activity is the week at the beach with their cousins. We want to provide that fun week for all the kids visiting Cheeky Tiki! In one of our master bedrooms, we have created a comfortable sleep space for a infant. The walk in closet is large enough to hold a pack n play or folding crib. It has a dedicated air vent as well as plugs for a monitor or sound machine if needed. No creeping around a dark room with a sleeping infant!
We want your time at Cheeky Tiki spent making memories you will never forget. And hope you will visit us again! We will provide recommendations for activities and eateries during your stay. We are always accessible for questions or issues that may arise .
